The worldwide SPAR organisation comprises 12.680 stores in 33 countries on 4 continents and meets the needs of over 10 million consumers every day. The expansion of the organisation increased dramatically in the 1990’s and continues now in the new century with Nigeria being the latest member country in May 2009.
SPAR originated in the Netherlands in 1932 and now, through its affiliate organisations, operates through most European countries, South Africa, Asia and Australia.It operates on a principle similar to retailers' co-operatives elsewhere, with owners grouping together to get bulk discounts from suppliers/wholesalers.
SPAR International has been fortunate to have found SPAR partners who provided vision and leadership over the last 80 years.
